Ya, I completely disabled that nonsense for my own sanity. I immediately enabled the "minimum noise profile" across the board, as if I was suffering from autism!!! LOL. I can't stand all the chimes personally, and last I checked, I wasn't even on the spectrum.... I think.
How did you get it working? Having the same issue with global close not working. I also lost my TPMS readings somehow.Thanks. Got it working once I made all the line changes in the spreadsheet. I can see the windows up being a good, quick benefit in the summer after leaving the Bronco with windows down and a thunderstorm comes along.
Regarding the plain english settings, I used those for the Fog lights and found that approach worked well using former member D2DHanover's instructions. In fact, those had at least one optional change in plain english that is not on the code line spreadsheet - Fogs also remaining on with high beams.
Like @AK SNO RIDER I saw a number of interesting plain english settings but am hesitant to do trial and error. Presumably, they are not options the Bronco is able to make use of. For instance, I found these settings about Auto Lock and Auto Relock. I'm on the fence whether I'd want those active with the Bronco but have it on another vehicle and it's often a nice feature.
Perhaps, someone will build a spreadsheet of the plain english options that work and the plain english changes to make to activate a certain option/feature.
I did all the changes for all the lines listed for the windows. I believe the screen shot below lays out the ones I did. I also did the last one that says Optional in the notes, which creates an option in Sync 4 vehicle settings for the windows up and down. Double check to make sure it shows "on" for both in Sync 4 vehicle options.
Thank you! I'll give it a shot. Strange about the TPMS.I did all the changes for all the lines listed for the windows. I believe the screen shot below lays out the ones I did.

Your comment about the TPMS readings caught my attention, and no idea if this window up/down change in Forscan correlates to it. But, after I made this change (and also made others), I had some wonky behavior of the Ford Pass app (more than usual). The app would not provide TPMS readings as well as other info like miles on car, fuel level, distance to empty, etc. I thought maybe a recent update to the Ford Pass app messed with it. Eventually app started displaying accurate info again sporadically but only 1 tire TPMS reading (front left) would display on app. Didn't worry about it since have been out of town until today and forgot about it until I saw your post. So I went out to the Bronco to crank it up to see what the onscreen said for TPMS. Interestingly, only that one TPMS showed on the instrument panel graphic. After a few minutes of idling and a restart or two, another one popped up (both on left side). Right side ones are displaying "--". Going to take it for a spin later to see if the other two TPMS reconnect. Again, no idea if this relates to some change made to get the Global Windows "up" to work but interesting you're trying to do that and also have TPMS reading issues. I may hook up Forscan later and see if any error codes are being listed, and do a clear of the codes.
I started having TPMS problems after updating tire radius and reducing tire pressure set value as well as some other things (double click panic, disabled walk away honk). About a week later two tires stopped reporting pressure (front right, back left if it matters). I thought it was weird but a day later the back left one came back. It's been a couple weeks more now and one is still not reporting. These aren't the OEM sensors but they should still last more than 6 months (only been on the car for 2 months). I've just been living with the nagging warning every time I go for a drive.I did all the changes for all the lines listed for the windows. I believe the screen shot below lays out the ones I did.

Thanks for the confirmation. I am still having trouble executing a relearn on the PCM. What is this “relearn from central configuration” mean. I haven’t seen this in the examples shown here or YouTube. Only “module initialization / relearn”
Just curious, have you been making changes via the plain English? This is where I see a lot of issues start to happen on new vehicles. Those plain English versions aren’t exactly verified, just long term consistent items from the past. Our Bronco is definitely a newer animal so I’m wondering if these plain English changes are changing addresses for what used to be correct but now affect others. I’ve been pretty consistent on going with only changing settings in the asbuilt formula. That way I know exactly what is getting changed each time so I can verify and cross reference for errors.
Very interesting and makes sense. For the Fog lights, I did use some plain English changes. I followed the instructions provided by @D2DHanover (now deleted) in the Fog Light Switch thread. Otherwise, all other changes were to the as-built per the spreadsheet.
Yeah I can vouch those changes definitely worked. But for 2021 Ford made a lot of changes to the F-150 and Bronco software. There’s plenty of redundancy but also so many things completely different. It’s felt like starting all over from scratch lately but we will get there eventually.
Same thing...after driving around a bit yesterday afternoon to run some errands (which necessitated several turn on/off engine cycles), all TPMS came back and wonkiness of app also disappeared. Will monitor.
